Even for RLC himself, it's not good to put him on for his debut in a close game at his age. No need to put such pressure on him.

He is 18. Players play in pressure games at 17. We are top and will finish there regardless of result. How is that putting much pressure on him? I am not demaning he comes on but if he came on at 2-1 what is the big deal? In fact that could help his learning curve.

in my way of seeing things, is very bad.

Their morale will be sky rocketing, they'll trounce their opponents - Aguero, no Aguero... which is never good for us.

Completely agree. There're missing Silva, Kompany, Toure and Augero. Winning this game without 4 of their best players will obviously have a huge impact on team morale.

If he makes a mistake leading to the equalizer, or even just comes on and we end up losing or drawing, his confidence would shattered. Put yourself in his shoes, is that how you'd like to remember your debut?

Anyway, that's irrelevant now, he should come on now.

It's much worse for us if they have the ability to prepare for games for a good week during the crunch period of the season whilst we have to prepare for mid week games.

Cesc started the Champions League final at 18.

we could capitalize with them losing matches now not in three months from now when UCL comes back...

They have key players missing matches, with low spirits it'd be the best chance of them dropping points...
